MCR1 has two operator schemes.
First operator scheme is in accompanying drawing the orientation of diagram.Chain roll assembly 5 contact ground, road surface or Building floor, object to be transmitted is positioned at the top of top load support plate 13.Starter motor group 9 Motor roller chain component 5 can be caused to move around chain wheel assembly 7 and load supporting member 11 in its ring, As discussed above.Because the cylindrical roller sleeve 37 in the lower part of the ring formed by roller chain component 5 Be sandwiched between load supporting member 11 and ground, road surface or building floor (or engage load supporting Component 11 and ground, road surface or building floor), so the movement that roller chain component 5 is in its ring is drawn Play MCR1 to translate along landing ground, road surface or building floor.More particularly, in the bottom of ring Cylindrical roller sleeve 37 in Fen engages load supporting member 11 and ground, road surface or building floor. These rolle rsleeve 37 movements in ring cause these rolle rsleeves 37 thus whole MCR1 transverse shifting, Because single rolle rsleeve 37 " rolls " along landing ground, road surface or building floor.
The motor of groups of motors 9 is reversible so that MCR1 can be forward or backward.
In this second mode of operation, MCR1 is contrary with the orientation of diagram in accompanying drawing so that the top of framework 3 Portion's load support plate 13 rests on ground, road surface or floor surface, the downside of roller chain component 5 be towards Top.In this orientation, MCR1 plays the effect of loading conveyor, because MCR1 does not moves.
In this second operator scheme, object to be transmitted is arranged in the top of the expose portion of roller chain component 5 Portion.When the motor of groups of motors 9 starts, cylindrical component 50 and gear ring 47 are still by the driving of groups of motors 9 Axle 25 rotates.This causes roller chain component 5 around chain wheel assembly 7 and load supporting member again in its ring 11 move.Because roller chain component 5 firmly engages load supporting member 11 and the downside of object just transmitted, The roller chain component 5 movement in ring causes the object just transmitted to move laterally together with roller chain component 5.
Multiple MCR1 can be aligned to so that object can be at the cylindrical roller sleeve 37 of multiple roller chain components 5 Top on transmit.
The interaction of the rolle rsleeve 37 of load supporting member 11 and contact load supporting member 11 causes It is evenly distributed on load supporting member 11, framework 3 and roller chain component 5 from the power of load.This is favourable , because compared to the conventional travel mechanism of the gravity of uneven distribution load, can be horizontal with equal amount The load that power transmission is heavier.
The no matter orientation of MCR1, tension member 57 applies tension to roller chain component 5, to prevent roller chain group Part 5 exists lax and guarantees that roller chain component 5 effectively transmits power and carries out transverse shifting from chain wheel assembly 7.
Second embodiment of the invention is the MCR1a being illustrated in Fig. 8 and 9.The parts of MCR1a use The reference identical with the parts of MCR1, in addition to the addition of suffix " a ".
